I am still happy as heck about bulk ordering.  However, I must warn you about
two misrepresentations of the elements as shown on the Bulk Ordering Selection
graphics.

1. Train windows - are clear NOT light blue tint as shown.
2. 1x4x6 Red doors have GREEN windows, not clear as shown.  I am seriously
considering returning the doors.  I hate the green windows in the red frame.

That said, I am loving the white, red and black tiles, the 2x4 roofs and the
1x4x5 black windows with clear glass.

(...) Didn't someone else say that the black windows had trans-light-blue glass? Seems to me Lego has a problem if (a) what's being delivered is not what is pictured on the website, and (b) people are ordering one thing and getting one of several (...)

Black windows with CLEAR glass??? My 10 packs all came with trans-blue. Greeeeaaaaat, that's all we need, totally random color choices for windows. I'd order the "train windows" in a second if I KNEW I'd be getting clear (I already have tons of (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
